The Hügel‑Sofa is a modern, curved seating sculpture above Besigheim, which appears like a piece of furniture modeled into the landscape.

The Hessigheim weir is the 16th weir on the Neckar river when viewed from the Rhine. Located near Hessigheim, it consists of a double lock on the right bank, a three-bay weir and a run-of-river power plant on the left bank.

.. in Bietigheim-Bissingen, Landkreis Ludwigsburg, Baden-Württemberg. In Bietigheim-Bissingen there are several park gardens that almost flow into each other: from the "Metteranlage" incl. "Japangarten" you get from the "Overland-Parkgarten" over the "alte Enzbrücke" to the "Bürgergarten" - on the occasion of the 1989 State Garden Show, this green space was created in the immediate vicinity of the old town in the Auwiesen area - the Bürgergarten is divided into the areas Staudengarten, Feuchtbereich, Gräsergarten and Spielbereich
